This game is ****ing impossible unless you're glued to your phone.
Come home to find LDU late out and Mackenzie's score stuck on the bench. Baker E for Hopper
If it makes you feel better, the SC site crashed so most people got locked out of that also. Not really any way around that problem, you'd have copped it whether there was rolling or not, almost was the fairest result that it crashed :LOL:

This so typical of my experience with Jelly.

Started him and watched him crab is way to 80 in game 1 before going off early in the last concussed.

Traded him out to Cogs in round 2.

Round 3 Jelly 146 v Cogs 58.

I think I’m trading Doc. If he can’t crack 90 with 39 touches then how is he going to average 105-110 to be top 6.
Didn’t think it was possible but CD are getting worse, might as well just jump on the golden tickets.
Some still see it as GnR. I'm moving towards the camp that value has become more important.

Last year and this year is a small sample size, but with more trades I really don't think it pays to sit on hands if you want to trade for value on an underperforming premium.

I suppose it comes down to where your backline sits, because with Constable and Cowan pretty untrustworthy, it may force to trade again if you run into issues quickly.

I'm 4 pronged + Ginbey and McKenna so in my position I will consider it.

This game becomes less enjoyable each season.
It’s interesting that there have been a few comments along these lines.

Maybe if any player who played <50% TOG, say, was automatically replaced with an emergency, that would reduce the need to monitor, and/or the level of annoyance when bad luck strikes.

Can't believe I started with this guy in my team. Absolutely bang average. The pick just hasn't worked out so far and doesn't look like changing any time soon.

It all becomes tricky doesn't it.
Leave Hopper on field to take Bakers 95 with E.
Then you are on a roller coaster for the rest of the weekend in the mids.
CAnt afford to E anyone else in case they spud it up losing the 95 on Baker.
Then there is a late out without cover unless you catch it in time. Or as it seems from comments above, about LDU and the site crashes leaving many stranded and frustrated with the game!
Seems to me they should do away with E’s and teams get a score based on the best 22 regardless if they are on field or not. Its become a trading game anyway. Then we could carry a few more 100k players without fear? And boost the rest of the team.

Made the mistake of not starting Oliver, a painful watch. Was considering going Callaghan to Oliver after this week with my mountain of spare cash before the Cameron injury so it's doubly painful.

The god damn LDU out really wrecked me. I actually managed to get out of LDU, one of a very select few, but wasn't able to get him to Day who I wanted as it crashed, then was going to Chandler but didn't pay attention to timing and Davey locked that out so I went Gulden, who cost me points on just not trading :LOL:

Oh well, another 3 trades this week sounds fun...
